The Department of History’s Sebastian Garcia talked with Dr. Jennifer Palmer, an Associate Professor of History at the University of Georgia, about her keynote presentation at the 16th Annual Pauley Lecture Series on Global Affairs titled, “To Have and To Hold: Race, Gender, and Property in the French Atlantic World.” Given that the recording of this podcast took place before her lecture presentation, Sebastian took a holistic approach and asked questions about Dr. Palmer’s first book (Intimate Bonds: Family and Slavery in the French Atlantic) and research more broadly (Early Modern France, the Atlantic World, and the Caribbean) to provide a more dynamic and fresh preview at the lecture she planned on presenting at the recording of this episode.
